€20m campaign targets ‘last-minute’ tourists
Tourism Ireland (TI) is focusing its largest ever mid-year overseas marketing drive on the great value deals being offered by its partners in hotels, B&Bs, self-catering, national cultural institutions and golf courses. TI’s overseas exhibitions will also feature its air and sea carrier partners’ later-than-ever special offers.
Tourism, Culture and Sport Minister Mary Hanafin said: “Over 60% of our overseas visitors arrive between May and September. We must get out there and fight for that business which is the lifeblood of this industry.”
